FLIGHT SIMULATOR IN SWITZERLAND

Flight Simulator in Switzerland! Hardly installed in the cockpit of your plane or your helicopter you can after a few minutes of explanation and instruction pilot yourself. Some laps with touch and go then you will leave making your journey over Switzerland if you wish, together with a friend. All this in complete safety! This is an unique experience as much from the point of view of the real sensations which you will feel as about the technological performances which offers the flight simulator. You can really say: I PILOTED MYSELF a plane or a helicopter! You can leran to fly on:

Already from the debuts of the aviation and considering the difficulties of piloting they were looking very fast for "trainers", with the result of a flight simulator with basic operations possibilities.

The first flight simulator, " le Tonneau d'Antoinette " was developed in 1910 by the Frenchman Léon Levavasseur. It was a big barrel with a cockpit fixed on balls for the movements with hand-operated Greed, Roll and Pitch.

The first really useful flight simulator was probably the " Link a Trainer " which was built in 1929 in the USA by Edwin Link. The cockpit was equipped with an electric-pneumatic movement. While the pilot, sitting in front of his instruments, carried out the flight manoeuvres. The virtual flight was recorded on the bases of a stiletto. Therefore the flight instructor could give instructions with a microphone to his pupils.

Nowadays almost all professional pilots practice regularly with the flight simulators either to allow to value themselves or to get train onto another type of aeroplane.

A very much appreciated gift would be a gift voucher for flying in a flight simulator!
